Chapter 9: Deliverance
The person who came was Gaotao, who had just been hurriedly called back from the Jiu Yi clan.
Gao Tao heard Jiu Yi say that the three children did not invite God to open the kiln, but also frightened, so he hurried over, did not think that when he arrived at the gate of the kiln, he saw a large group of people in Wuyang and Wuyang, his wife and children were in it, and there were even people who forcibly pushed Yao Chonghua, and wanted Yao Chonghua to sacrifice the kiln, which really blocked him, and his so many years of benevolence and education were really all in vain?
"What are you doing here? Who made you so savage to sacrifice the living? What is the difference between you and the evil beasts of the mountains? As soon as Gao Tao came up, he asked three questions in a row.
When everyone saw that the big leader appeared, the deterrent power was fully displayed, and the mighty and majestic warriors had surrounded the scene, and the originally rioting crowd quieted down.
Ren Ding took advantage of everyone's relaxation, and quickly pulled Yao Chonghua back into his arms and hugged him, Yao Chonghua stayed silently in Ren Ding's arms, now he can't speak, and it is wrong to say more.
"Say, who's going to answer me?" Gao Tao raised his voice again, which showed how angry he was at this time.
At that time, the crowd was secretly quiet, and the atmosphere did not dare to breathe, and Bi Bo saw that the situation was finally under control, so he said to Gao Tao: "Big leader, all the reasons are because Chonghua Xiaotong and the two little masters were anxious to build a water tank to open the kiln without inviting God, but they are also concerned about the people, anxious for the welfare of the people, and please don't blame them for the big chief." ”
"Master, you are still speaking for them, if you offend the kiln god, our entire Bibo kiln will suffer, and we will eat and drink whatever we want." Jiu Yi was in a hurry, he had only known the child for a few days, and the master was so protective of him, obviously he was really for the good of the whole Bi kiln.
"Now that everything is still undecided, how do you know that we will definitely be condemned by the kiln god?" Bi himself didn't know why his eldest disciple had become like this in the past few days, and he had to seek a child's life.
"Why is there no conclusion yet, he only burned it for a day and said that it could be done, isn't that a lie?" Jiu Yi knew that the master had been making pottery for many years and had rich experience, how could he still believe a child's lie that he could burn pottery in one day.
In fact, Bi Bo didn't believe it, he just didn't want to hurt a child, "Even if we can't do kilns, can't we still farm and livestock?" Just starve to death. "Turned around like Gao Tao again, "The big chief, the whole Dongyi has abolished the bad custom of human sacrifice for a long time, plus the big leader has implemented benevolent government for many years, such a bad custom is even more unacceptable, here Lao Suo wants to vouch for the Chonghua god Tu Yu Lei, if the water tank can't be burned today, Lao Suo wishes that his descendants will not make pottery for the rest of his life, and use sheep instead of living people to sacrifice to the gods, I believe that the gods will forgive ignorant children, and will not be as barbaric as this group of people." ”
"Master!" Hearing Bi Bo's words, Jiu Yi felt even more unhappy, it was not worth it to take their offspring for this kid.
Bi Bo has made up his mind and doesn't pay attention to him.
Gao Tao nodded, "The difference between humans and beasts is that people can think, understand morality, talk about benevolence and righteousness, and unite without killing their companions. ”
At this time, everyone also reacted, yes, the great leader has a point, if they must die an ignorant child, it is those who will cruelly eat the beasts of their own kind, and the people who have recovered their senses are also distressed, why are they so obsessed with people's lives.
In fact, this is not to blame them, when everyone came to crusade against Yao Chonghua's disrespectful gods, no one felt that it was wrong, after the words of the sacrificial kiln that Jiu Yi unintentionally said when spreading rumors, the more emotional people would subconsciously put forward suggestive words, this is the category of psychology, primitive people are affected by the knowledge level, the width and depth of thinking about the problem is very limited, and the people who follow the crowd will also respond, which will lead to the uncontrollable scene.
Seeing that the mood of the people gradually stabilized, Gao Tao proposed: "I propose here, we will wait for the water tank to burn out, if it is done, in order to celebrate, then the three deer I hunted when I went out today have been slaughtered, I Gao Tao please everyone here to eat a good meal, if not, we will sacrifice these three deer to the gods, how about asking the gods for forgiveness?" ”
Everyone looked at each other for a while, felt that this method was feasible, and agreed, Gao Tao said to Qin Buxu: "Since everyone has no opinion, then you can take someone to slaughter the deer for later use." ”
Qin Buxuan was about to go out after receiving the order, but Bi Bo stopped him, "By the way, I also brought the sheep in my prison pen to slaughter." ”
Bi Bo instructed his disciples to come over to those straw mats, and everyone sat on the ground in Bi Bo's courtyard like this, Gao Tao took Yao Chonghua from Ren Ding's arms, sat on the steps and asked the three children: "You three are really too risky today, who came up with the idea?" ”
Shen Tu and Yu Lei didn't say anything, Gao Tao saw them like this, needless to say, it must be Yao Chonghua's idea in his arms, "Chonghua, I know you have the intention to benefit the people, but it's too risky for you to do this." ”
This is Bi Bo also came over, "Yes, you dare to stiffen your neck in a day, you think your head is too smart?" ”
Yao Chonghua muttered in a low voice: "You only gave me two days, and it took me a day to change the kiln, but my method of burning the water tank in one day is true." ”
Gao Tao actually didn't believe that he could fire a kiln in a day: "Really? We used to burn the kiln for several days, and as soon as I heard you say it, I knew it was a trick. ”
Why didn't everyone believe him? No one believed it, Yao Chonghua was depressed, "It's true, I just thought of a new method." ”
Bi Bo was puzzled: "Yesterday, I just saw you digging a hole behind the kiln and inserting bamboo, so that it can be fired?" ”
"I originally wanted to tell you when it was burned, but now I can't wait, big leader Lao Bi, do you see something coming out of that bamboo?"
Gao Tao and Bi Bo looked over, the bamboo behind the kiln now emitted some black smoke, Yao Chonghua knew that the fire in the kiln was relatively strong now, and the charcoal could be fully burned, and the smoke and carbon monoxide would be less.
Gaotao asked, "Why is there smoke in the bamboo?" ”
The three children all smiled mysteriously on their faces, full of appetite, and in the end, Yu Lei couldn't help it, and was the first to be exposed, "We poked the bamboo into a hollow with a wooden stick." ”
"Why?"
Yao Chonghua replied: "Everyone knows that the temperature of the kiln is very important, like the water tank is so big, the temperature requirements are higher, and the original kiln has only one kiln door, the wind can not go in and out, it can only be calm inside, the outside wind can not enter, and the opening to observe the fire above is too small to use, so you can only open another opening, so that the wind has in and out, you think about it carefully, is it in the field when the fire is ignited, there is wind can burn up all at once?" ”
Gaotao and Bi Bo have both lived in the wild, and what Yao Chonghua said is indeed in line with the phenomenon he usually sees.
Bi said, "Is there anything in the wind that can help burn?" ”
Of course, it's oxygen, but how to explain it, the more explanations you have, the more problems there will be, "Actually, it's not good if the wind is too strong, if the wind is strong, people will feel cold, and similarly, if the wind is too strong, it will also take away the temperature in the kiln, so the hole we dig is not very big." ”
Gao Tao and Bi Bo pondered, they all knew what Yao Chonghua said, but they never connected them, it was reasonable for Yao Chonghua to say this, and his brain was really smart.
At this time, Shen Tu also had questions, "Ah Hua, didn't you say that the charcoal we burn is the key?" ”
"Charcoal? You burned it two days ago? Bi asked.
Yao Chonghua nodded, "Charcoal is indeed the key, we changed the kiln to increase the temperature, but first there must be a fuel that can produce a higher temperature as a basis." The charcoal we make is when the wood is ready to burn to the peak when we are forced to use wet soil to extinguish, just like when people are about to get angry, you say a cool word, when we light it again, it will explode, so the temperature of the charcoal burned out is originally higher than that of burning the wood. ”
"I see, I really didn't expect it, this is really a good idea, Chonghua is good, Chonghua is good." Gao Tao greatly appreciated Yao Chonghua, he was young, but he knew a lot, and his knowledge and courage were as good as an adult, no, even better than himself.
"Lao Suo knows that Chonghua Xiaotong is very intelligent, but he didn't expect his hands-on ability to be so strong, but when the temperature is raised, can he really burn it in one day?" Bi Bo was still a little worried.
For this, Yao Chonghua is still relatively confident, "The big wall thickness will take six hours, and the small one will take four hours." ”
"What?!" Gao Tao and Bi Bo both stood up in surprise, "How can time be shortened so much?" ”
They can't believe that just the increase in temperature has greatly shortened the time, and it used to take a few days to open a kiln, and there were only about a dozen finished products that could be fired. If you can burn one kiln a day, you can burn thirty or forty of them in three days, which is really a big surprise.
Just when the two of them were excited, Yao Chonghua silently added: "It can also improve the success rate, the temperature is high, and the loss rate will be smaller." ”
Gao Tao and Bi Bo didn't know how to react, Gao Tao picked up Yao Chonghua, threw it up, and caught it, coming and going several times, it is not difficult to see the joy, which reminded Yao Chonghua of when his father was still alive, and he also liked to throw him up and down like this, and he didn't care if he was uncomfortable or not, he just liked to tease himself, at that time he always disliked him and treated himself as a toy, but it has been almost 20 years since his father left, and he was treated like this by another person.
The ten-year-old himself is already very weighty, but Gao Tao can indeed easily throw it up, and catch it steadily, he is very similar to his father, but he is stronger than his father, and even Ren Ding is stronger than his father, this ancient person's IQ is not necessarily high, but the strength is particularly great.
The family treats themselves very well, like relatives.
Yao Chonghua was a little embarrassed, just went over with Shen Tu and Yu Lei, and it was almost the same as putting charcoal again, Yao Chonghua secretly glanced at the water tank, and put down a little bit of his heart, the tank body was still complete, but he couldn't see clearly, and he didn't know if there were cracks.
As soon as the charcoal was put away, people gathered around him.
Just treated a child so rudely, everyone felt a little guilty, and then the big leader kept holding Yao Chonghua, and they had no way to contact it, and finally when the child came out, they quickly came over to apologize.
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have treated you like this just now." The thin man who was still aggressive just now was the first to speak, and he was the most radical.
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have been so rude, I should have something to say." The fat man also came to repent.
Yao Chonghua was a little uncomfortable in his heart, but he was not stingy, he didn't really blame them, "It's okay." I don't blame you, I just hope that you think twice when you think about things, and don't regret when you do something wrong, there is no regret medicine in the world. ”
Everyone said, "We'll think twice." ”
Jiu Yi also came over, his face was very bad, he was not reconciled, the cause of everything was because of him, but Yao Chonghua was not punished, that means that the wrong person is him, not Yao Chonghua, maybe he really overreflected, but Yao Chonghua has been against him in everything these days, and every time he loses, the grievance in his heart has been held back for a long time, "I'm sorry!" ”
Yao Chonghua looked at Jiuyi's appearance, he also understood in the past few days, Jiuyao is not a big bad person, but a real villain, he may also have his good, such as respecting the teacher, but he is also very vain, if you do something to hurt his interests, he will bite you in turn, this kind of person is not a great crime, but he can't have a deep friendship, "It's okay." ”
